Meet Me on Cassiopeia

Meet Me on Cassiopeia (Danish: Mød mig på Cassiopeia) is a 1951 Danish musical film directed by Torben Anton Svendsen. The story is about a Muse played by Bodil Kjer interfering in a contemporary theater production, who gets as inspired by Earthly life as she inspires them. The musical was a big hit in Denmark at the time, but is probably best remembered for several top hits written for it, many of which still gets modern covers made of them; among others Den allersidste dans (English: The Very Last Dance) and Musens sang (English: The Song of the Muse).
